1991 journal article

Identification of the mitochondrial genome in the chrysophyte alga Ochromonas danica

Journal of Protozoology, 38(2), 129–135.

By: A. Coleman*, W. Thompson n & L. Goff

author keywords: DNA; OCHROMONAS-MINUTA; PLASTID DNA; POTERIOCHROMONAS-MALHAMENSIS; RDNA; SPECIATION
TL;DR: Analysis of total DNA isolated from the Chrysophyte alga Ochromonas danica revealed, in addition to nuclear DNA, two genomes present as numerous copies per cell, which suggest that all classes of eukaryote algae may have mitochondrial genomes < 100 kbp in size, more like other protistans than land plants.

By: T. Pedersen n, L. Arwood n, S. Spiker n, M. Guiltinan* & W. Thompson n

author keywords: AT-RICH SEQUENCES; DNA-BINDING PROTEINS; FERREDOXIN-I; HMG; HIGH MOBILITY GROUP PROTEINS

PROSPECTS FOR GENETIC-ENGINEERING OF INSECT RESISTANCE IN FOREST TREES

[Review of ]. FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT, 43(3-4), 181–209.

By: S. Strauss*, G. Howe* & B. Goldfarb*

TL;DR: It is argued that the improved nutrition of coniferous trees provided by intensive forest management should allow them to make heavier investments in novel nitrogen-based defensive compounds such as proteins and alkaloids, and that genetic engineering can help to take advantage of this opportunity.

A liquid cytokinin pulse induces adventitious shoot formation from Douglas-fir cotyledons

Plant Cell Reports (Online), 10, 156–160.

By: B. Goldfarb*, G. Howe*, L. Bailey*, S. Strauss* & J. Zaerr*

TL;DR: High-concentration, 2-h liquid pulses of N6-benzylaminopurine and thidiazuron on adventitious bud and shoot formation were tested in cotyledons of Douglas-fir; one of the best treatments yielded more cotYledons with buds, and more buds per cotygledon, than when cytokinins were incorporated into the growth medium.

By: B. Li*, S. Mckeand* & H. Allen*

TL;DR: Heritability estimates were generally high for shoot characteristics except for mean stem-unit length, and elongation of cyclic growth, number of growth cycles, and number of stem units showed stronger correlations with field performance than did seedling height. (via Semantic Scholar)

REACTION OF WINTER OAT GERM PLASM TO AN EPIDEMIC OF OAT POWDERY MILDEW

PLANT DISEASE, 75(8), 807–809.

By: S. Leath* & P. Bruckner

TL;DR: In the spring of 1989, an epidemic of oat powdery mildew occurred naturally in four randomized blocks near Tifton, Georgia, in which 31 winter oat lines had been planted in the fall of 1988, and plots were rated on 14 and 18 April for percentage of foliage covered with mildew and for infection type (0-4 scale).
